ORGAN PRELUDE
WELCOME
* CALL TO WORSHIP
We come to pray,
To Talk and Listen to God.
We come to experience the wonder of God’s world,
Where we see God and hear God.
We come to celebrate God’s presence in one another.
Come let us worship together.
HYMN #242 “Let All Things”
PRAYER OF APPROACH
We ask a simple question: What is your favourite song, O God, the
one you hum along the halls of heaven, the one you whistle while
creating things? Have we heard it? Is it in our repertoire?
Is it even in the treasury of all great religions? Is it the lament
whispered by a mother to her dying child or the delightful cooing
of first love? Give us one note of it to savour and ponder to begin
to make chords and tunes and harmonies. Rattle it around in our
heads. Send it surging through our fingertips. Give us a hint of
your song. Help us to sing it too.
Let us pray together singing Our Father … Amen.
